Chapter 664: Xuecheng, Trust Me
Under the dazzling sunlight, Xuecheng’s expression became increasingly cold.
He tightly pursed his lips, almost going mad with anger.
Su Wan was his woman, how could she allow other men to protect and plead for her?!
Ha, Su Wan really gave him “face”.
Even if she was in the hospital, even if there was a child of unknown origin in her belly, she was still so attractive!
She could even make the young master of the Siswell family fall for her, and even give her a necklace as a gesture of goodwill at a critical moment!
Jiang Xuecheng’s dark eyes stared at Fiennes, wis.h.i.+ng that he could throw this man who missed Su Wan out and feed him to the dogs.
Even though Jiang Xuecheng’s anger was so obvious, Fiennes did not seem to notice it at all, and the smile on his face was as light as a spring breeze.
“Since Your Highness isn’t saying anything, then I’ll take it That Your Highness has agreed. I will leave this necklace in Your Highness’ hands.”
Without waiting for Jiang Xuecheng to speak, Fiennes stuffed the necklace into Jiang Xuecheng’s hands without any explanation.
Jiang Xuecheng was stunned for a moment. By the time he reacted, Fiennes had already turned around and left.
In the end, he even didn’t forget to say something provocative.
“Your Highness, if Miss Su has offended you in any way, I hope you can tolerate her. After all, pregnant women should not be angry.”
If Fiennes had not mentioned that Su Wan was pregnant, it would have been fine. But once he mentioned this, Jiang Xuecheng seemed to have been set on fire. His entire body was about to explode!
Thinking of the child of unknown origin, Jiang Xuecheng’s hand clenched tightly. The moist pearl necklace was in his hand. It made people unable to help but worry about whether the necklace would be broken.
Su Wan…
Feeling the jewelry in his hands, the corners of Jiang Xuecheng’s lips curled into a sneer. He raised his hand almost in the next second, wanting to throw it out directly.
However, when he raised his hand, Jiang Xuecheng suddenly brought it down again.
He lowered his head and stared at the exquisite snowflake necklace in his hands. No matter what, Fiennes seemed to be avoiding something just now. He still needed an explanation from Su Wan.
If Su Wan’s explanation did not satisfy him, he would throw the necklace directly at Su Wan’s face!
Jiang Xuecheng silently tightened his grip on the snowflake necklace. He glanced at the wide open hospital door and finally walked over there.
…
In the dark long corridor, Su Wan was leaning against the wall alone. Her slender figure looked a little lonely.
Su Wan stared at her hands in boredom, her heart growing more and more anxious.
Why had it been so long, but Fiennes still hadn’t returned with Jiang Xuecheng?
Was it because Jiang Xuecheng didn’t want to see her?!
Just as Su Wan was worried, she suddenly heard the sound of footsteps not far away.
The sound of the footsteps was sonorous and powerful, echoing in the corridor and stirring people’s hearts. But Su Wan could clearly hear that only one person had returned.
Why was there only one person?!
When she thought of this, Su Wan’s heart suddenly sank.
Without thinking, she turned her face away. Before she could see who was at the corner of the corridor, her voice had already escaped her mouth.
“Fiennes, is it that His Highness was unwilling to come back with you to see me…”
Before Su Wan could finish her sentence, the figure gradually approached, and a familiar cold face was unexpectedly revealed.
The person who had come was undoubtedly Jiang Xuecheng. His features were sharp, and he exuded an aura that prevented strangers from getting close to him.
At this moment, his long and narrow eyes were staring at her coldly, with a condescending and mocking look.
When their eyes met, the words that had just reached Su Wan’s throat suddenly disappeared.
She felt her throat dry up, and her heartbeat seemed to have lost control, becoming faster and faster. Su Wan even suspected that the drum-like sound might have been heard by Jiang Xuecheng.
It was so embarra.s.sing.
Su Wan lowered her head and looked embarra.s.sed.
“Your Highness, it’s you.”
The man’s face seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost. His eyes were malicious and his gaze was locked on Su Wan.
Su Wan actually called out Fiennes’ name to him just now. It seemed that he really should have thrown the necklace at Su Wan’s face!
But he held it in.
Because just now, he found that Su Wan was even thinner than before.
Under the dim light, Su Wan’s face was still as beautiful as ever, with a hint of Jiangnan’s water village aura. However, her face was a little pale, and her chin was getting sharper.
It seemed that the female doctor did not lie to him. Su Wan really had not been living well these days.
“It is indeed me. Why, you seem very dissatisfied to see me?”
Jiang Xuecheng’s voice was very calm, without the slightest ripple. It did not match his cold and cynical expression at all.
It was because it was too calm that it made Su Wan’s heart tremble!
This was like the premonition of a storm. She did not know when Jiang Xuecheng would be angry.
Being stared at by the man like this without blinking, she even had the impulse to run away from the door!
“Of course not!”
Su Wan smiled guiltily, and then with a serious expression, she began to explain what had just happened without thinking.
“Your Highness, I don’t know what you saw or heard just now, but believe me, I have nothing to do with Fiennes.”
Jiang Xuecheng did not reply. He suddenly raised his hand and slowly unfurled a magnificent snowflake necklace.
“Fiennes told me to give this to you. Now you’re telling me that you have nothing to do with him?”
Jiang Xuecheng’s expression was cold, but his tone suddenly became heavier, with a strong sense of hostility!
“It can’t be that the child in your belly is also his, right?!”
The man’s sinister tone made Su Wan’s blood run cold!
Su Wan’s heart trembled, and she suddenly had an illusion.
Jiang Xuecheng was a devil that had just crawled out of h.e.l.l, and he could eat her up to the bone at any moment!
Su Wan had long known that the child was the deepest scar in his heart. However, in just one more week, she would be able to prove her innocence!
Su Wan’s expression was complicated. She glanced at the necklace in Jiang Xuecheng’s hand and quickly explained.
“I’ve already said that the child is Your Highness’. Even if Your Highness doesn’t believe me, don’t randomly guess that it’s Fiennes’! That’s absolutely impossible!”
The more Su Wan spoke, the more afraid she became. She kept feeling that Jiang Xuecheng’s face had turned even darker.
Jiang Xuecheng sneered coldly. Actually, ever since he saw Su Wan and Fiennes eating together at the coffee shop, he had specially sent people to investigate the relations.h.i.+p between Su Wan and Fiennes.
Su Wan and Fiennes had only known each other a little earlier than him. Judging from the time, Fiennes definitely wouldn’t have allowed Su Wan to be pregnant with such an old child.
However, even though he knew that, there was still a thorn in Jiang Xuecheng’s heart.
“Then why did he give you jewelry for no reason? Why is it so expensive?!”
Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng was willing to listen to her explanation, Su Wan felt relieved. She hurriedly told him about the bet she made with Diya a week ago.
At the end of the story, Su Wan added a sentence in her heart indignantly.
“Actually, compared to this necklace, I would much rather see that young lady Diya suffer a loss. Unfortunately, she was unwilling to come because of her illness. Not only could she not afford to lose, but she also caused your highness to misunderstand.”
